It has problem following me especially in the "Back" mode. Seems that the remote loses connection to the SideKick device while walking away. In these cases you need to walk back and persuade the trolley somhow to follow you. Once under way in follow mode it works quite well. The remote does not have a possiblity to advance 15 or 30 yards straight in SideKick mode. This is only possible with the normal Remote control without SideKick.

Continually loses signal and i need to use the remote control. There is a lot of switching on and off again to get connected. Promised a lot but does not deliver i am afraid. Think Stewart golf have the lead on this one.

I have had some issues with the placement of the SideKick but once I received the bag mount, they went away. Also, once you get the remote on your belt, you only need to use one button to stop and start. I love the SideKick now.

Best purchase ever. Works like a dream. Back to walking even the most difficult tracks. Thanks for the great product.

great item! i would recomment it to all my buddies that have the alphard V2. easy to use and it took me 5 minutes to set up and figure it out how it works. its not perfect yet, but with updates it will be operating flawless. thank you for finally creating a totally Wireless follow me golf cart!

I love the V2......should have purchased long ago. The sidekick works wonderfully when its connected, my only complaint with the Sidekick is that after switching to standby mode it is sometimes hard to get re-connected

I love my v2 ewheels, I've added the wheely bars and now the sidekick. I'm amazed at the engineering and quality of build on everything from Alphard. I was the first to get a V2 at my course. Today the V2 is the majority of electric caddies. I purchased a battery this year thinking my old one had to run out at some point this summer. Not the case. I would estimate I have more than 250 rounds of golf on the original battery. Amazing. The sidekick is the top of the mountain in terms of engineering, both electronic and software engineering. A friend of mine was in a cart and asked me to jump in and see if the sidekick/V2 could keep up. He was amazed that it did. It takes a bit to truely trust and feel the freedom of walking up a fairway with the V2 following you. Amazing, love it.

Seems like it works pretty good. Issue I had was the remote would just cut off as I walked the fairway. I spoke to James and he advised the remote turns off every ten minutes to save the battery. So now when I take the remote off my belt I don’t just sit it down and pick it back up after I swing. I have to hit a button to shut it off and the FL to turn it back on. Have not tried that yet. I believe he said you could use any button. Guess we shall see. Other than that. It’s worth the money. Plus you get to have conversations with people you normally wouldn’t have.

4.75/5 Overall, very cool. Would recommend. Can get a little glitchy, but not as glitchy as my golf game. Had it track the wrong direction a few times. Instead of tracking toward me, it took off 90° from me. Restarting it fixed it. Could be user error but happed one time in two rounds. Not a big deal. Super fun and cool. Get one!

Played 4 rounds with this so far. Love it. Works great. Playing partners are jealous. Made playing in the heat tolerable

The device works better mounted on the front of the golf bag vs the cart handle. It doesn’t always respond after you hit a ball and start walking again. I have to walk slowly away to make sure it follows me. More than half the time it doesn’t, and I have to manually forward it and then switch to the follow mode.

Place the promotional oder in Sept 2022 , I finally got in mid May 2023 ..we had alot of trouble getting it my hands but it's here thanks to Tony and staff . THE Sidekick works great just make sure the directions marker is correctly pointed..it's on constant movement to locate and follow the remote best to keep in the rear of your pants belt .follow me feature will keep up with even if you stride abit faster than normal, make sure nothing falls out of the push cart because it will alway be behind you, left or right never in the front . The remote uses alot of energy with the new led display make sure to charge once every 2 rounds and would do the same for the sidekick..overall is convenient when you have to work both hands but on hot days rarely use it ,I would like be under the umbrella most of time ..it's fun toy to the v2 !

I have enjoyed my V2 for almost 3 years now. The Sidekick has made the experience even more outstanding, taking the experience to a whole other level! Thank you Alex and Alphard!

I have been using the Sidekick for month now and love it.

After waiting a couple of extra months, I received the CB Sidekick in good order. Everything worked fine, installation went well on the handle of my Sun Mountain Speed Cart. I haven't used follow-me mode much on the course yet due to my learning curve, not wanting to slow down play or have issues with the transition between manual mode and follow mode.

Been a decent experience with learn to get This to work. Have found that the placement of the remote is very critical. If you have it set to follow in back of you and you place the remote on your hip, you will drive it nuts. I find placing it on my right or left hip and having it follow to the right or left is best. My one complaint it the difficulty of seeing the remote display with polarized glasses on or in the sun. Bit difficult to see. Pay close attention to “parking” it when taking your shot or putt. It just might sneak up on you if you’re not careful…….LOL

I have only been able to use it once. I had trouble with my head covers blocking the signal so I moved the receivers to the front of my cart. I have the two-wheel system so I could attach it to the bar between two front wheels. This helped the cart stay with me much better. I still had times I lost signal and I would have to walk back to it to get the cart to follow mw again. I am still learning . Danny Smith

Takes a bit of getting used to. Remember that the cart direction sign moves to point backwards when you’re ready to move forwards. Other than everything else seems to work intuitively. I’ve mounted mine to the front of my golf bag to ensure “line of sight”. Well worth reviewing the tips and tricks on the VIP Club Booster Facebook group.

It took me about 3 rounds to fully enjoy the hands free. I would definitely purchase again if needed to

The new remote is a game changer. The initial remote was functional but for a gadget guy the new remote is on point. Regarding Felicia (the name I have given to my sidekick), she is a SOMEWHAT responsive girl. She listens better than my wife but is somewhat fickle. We are still in our honeymoon phase as we have only been together for 3 rounds, but very happy with the purchase. The handlebar adapter is good but not great. I would like to mount it on the left side (since I prefer to have her walk along side me on the right) of the grip but then it is hard to get Felicia to stay parallel to the ground since the grip is slanted on both sides. I will continue to try, but mounting it in the middle she sometimes listens and sometimes doesn't...much like my wife.

Took a bit of climbing a learning curve, so practice in the yard or golf course parking lot out away from obstacles is recommended. Once you learn to take it from Parked to Follow mode BEFORE you step away toward the ball you just hit, it follows like a well-trained dog, even heels better than my dog LOL! It doesn't do well in tight turning spots, so you must plan where you walk and which side or rear you have it follow you. Great brakes - skidded to a stop within an inch of my shins several times!

I have used the sidekick for one round of golf. When it works it’s great and follows well. I had issues getting the cart to follow me consistently and trying to troubleshoot during the a round is not ideal. I have a CaddyTek CaddyCruiser ONE Tour and Nike Air Hybrid 2 Golf Bag and the drivers and woods were blocking the line of sight between the remote and sidekick. After rearranging my bag and adjusting the height of the handle I was able to get it to follow consistently. When i set it up to follow on the left or right the cart tends to have trouble following close and will often get very wide left or right so be careful if near water and other hazards, following behind was most effective for me. Once the above issues were resolved it was very nice to have the cart just follow me around the course (like having a caddy) If you’re using the follow from the back feature you will have to be mindful of how close you get to your ball before stoping the cart it was often too close to take a swing and I had to back the cart up on a few occasions. Definitely test it out thoroughly with your bag and clubs before playing a round or on a slow day at your course. It’s not perfect but it’s definitely very close, hopefully with some updates and more practice it will become more easier to navigate. I am looking forward to my next round, to get another chance to get more comfortable with my new toy. I definitely recommend this feature above using the remote, much easier to focus on your next shot, read the greens as you’re approaching and not have to focus on steering your cart ( not that it’s a distraction) but not having to do so is noticeable.

I've had my sidekick for about three weeks now and played as many rounds. It has its ups and downs. When it tracks the remote it works great, but when it doesn't it can be very frustrating. I can call it to me, but it still doesn't want to act normally. I've had to shut both he remote and sidekick down and make sure the sidekick is aiming forward then restart both. This seems to fix those tracking issues, but I still can't figure out what the interference is. I have a ClickGear 3.5 and a Sun Mountain C 130 bag. The sidekick is mounted to the upper grip and the my driver and fairway hoods sit far enough down I can see the sidekick with no issues. I wear the clip on center of my back. I really want to love this product but still trying to figure out the bugs.

Works well requires some self training. The position that you have the remote stored in effects signal performance

So far testing the sidekick I have had 0 issues running in my neighborhood. I have it on the handle of my Caddytek. I use a Sun Mountain C130 bag. The driver sits down near the handles, so there is no issues with the sensors. I have tested on follow, left, and right and I love it. I am ready to take to the course and really use it! Thanks Alex and the Alphard family for another great product.

Potentially excellent improvement. I’d highly recommend mounting of front of bag to improve line of sight. Still some wrinkles to iron out on starting after putting it on hold when around the green, etc. I’m still not certain if it’s product or user error. It takes some getting accustomed to.

I have used the side kick several times now, it works great! Setting it up is easy. Charging the sidekick and the remote is easier with the new cables. The only thing you have to get use to is turning off the follow me feature when you are approaching your ball to hit it. It flowed me right over my ball a few times. Until I got use to switching it to the remote mode. I think the Sidekick is well engineered and thought out. Thanks.
